 Welcome to Colwood Elementary School's Website.  The school is located in the City of Colwood just outside the City of Victoria.   Colwood School is a Kindergarten to Grade 6 elementary school with a current enrolment of 190 students.  We presently have a staff of 12 teachers, 6 support staff and 2 administrators. We follow the curriculum as prescribed by the British Columbia Ministry of Education.  

The Colwood Staff is committed to providing a safe and nurturing school environment that meets the educational, social and emotional needs of our students. The staff and parents work co-operatively and enthusiastically to provide the very best learning opportunities for the students.

We are privileged to have an active and supportive Parent Advisory Council.  We encourage parents to get involved with the school community and with the education of their children.  It is important for children to see that the home and school support each other; together we can make a difference.
